After a few months suspense (well disguised), I can finally fully reveal THE liberty dress! Now or never! After the revelation of the bottom and then the top, here it is in front of your eyes, in its totality! I wore it with a hat and boots in order to break its mushy childish side, I think I like it better this way. And it also doesn’t seem too springy because this dress, I don’t think I will be able to wear it much longer: October is coming, leaves are falling, the wet weather from around Halloween, looking at the window at the trees getting pushed around by a gust of wind… Being overwhelmed by a gloomy melancholy, it gives you some fire huh? For the first day of the week, I could have made a more cheerful note but forgive me, it’s my dramatico-tragico side that’s talking. Don’t thank me, my pleasure. HahahahahaHAAAA!

I know this has nothing to do with fashion, but I also enjoy sharing my inspiration sources with you, whatever they may be. Since the 6th of September, I have been listening to this album over and over again (with Spotify for the moment, since the album will only be out in France on October 11th). I had already shared my big crush for this Manchester band with you a while ago with « Wonderful Life », a song that gets me all nostalgic about the 80s : the synthesizer, the almost surgically pure aesthetic of the video, the slightly kitsch jerky moves of the dancers, and this hint of glamour that the singer, Theo Hutchcraft knows just how to instill. I am truly sensitive to the band’s universe (and to Theo’s intense gaze, I confess!): this apparent austerity that flirts with a certain dandy class. It is very hard to convert someone when it comes to musical tastes, and some of you will probably be immune to these melodies, but I wanted to post something about the sounds that are accompanying me these days, and that are influencing, I’m sure, my perception of the world, making my life just a little bit more « wonderful ».(English translation by Bleu Marine)

You followed me this summer in my search for THE wedding outfit: I finally choose a jumpsuit and I don’t regret it because I felt very comfortable during the whole party and as a little extra, I can wear it again now. So I put it back on in a much more relaxed way, which gave it a new look. With some good old converse from way back and the grey drape cardigan so as not to fall into the « all black » group. From now on I am thinking about new and suitable ways to use this jumpsuit. I can already see it with my black pirate boots, a short jumper on top of it and a wool cloak for winter… On the other hand, I will most probably have to think about a way to not have to go to the loo…(English translation by Charlotte B)

And I present to you : my second pair of carrot pants from Portugal! They are identical to the beige ones I showed you last time. Yes, exactly! During my Lisboan shopping session, I took the two pairs. I almost took the khaki one too, but displaying great self-control, I resisted (understand : the khaki wasn’t available in my size anymore).Anyway, walking through the streets, all I have been seeing lately are ladies in these famous carrot pants : the folds, the cut, I see at least once a day, and oddly enough, I have yet to tire of those multi-cloned pants. Of course, it is a pretty basic piece, it’s not like if I came across someone wearing the exact same dress with the « little blue chimpanzees on the electric green background » I was (no, I do not own such a dress … you would have liked that wouldn’t you?). Actually, this even gives for a sort of fun « rallying sign » : all girls united for the carrot pants! … Such a noble cause indeed is that of the comfort of our rear end. Maybe will you also rally to my « little gray duffel blazer » cause since it is also appearing today for the first time … (English translation by Bleu Marine)
